Week 9 Time: 1.30 - 3.30 Presenter: Paula Jamieson (Facilitator)
Venue: Glenholme
Title:"iPad = iPower"
iPads are such an incredibly powerful tool, they can impact on your role as a Learner, a Teacher and a Leader. Let’s look at “Purpose, Productivity and the iPad as a Creative tool to Nurture Thinking”. Everything from “Communication to Collaboration to Capturing Voice”.
Expectations:
Time will be provided for questions, if you have access to an iPad and iTunes account feel free to bring it with you as you may choose to download apps and learn how to use them during the session.
Paula recently presented this session to the First time Principals Conference and is repeating a similar session at Ulearn in Auckland in October.
An interactive and hands on workshop creating weblists, to house your favourite pictures, websites, videos, documents and files. Great tool to use when presenting ideas and content to colleagues at staff meetings. You take the guess work out of the equation by making it easy for your students to find a collection of their favourite websites, photos and documents, all of which can be found under the one umbrella. Weblists make it easier for you, your colleagues and students to share content and to find content.
Expectations:
This will be a 'repeat' of the session Molly shared at our Teacher Only Day Conference
